The deceased, Abram Lampman, was born on the 16th day of September 1817, in Franklin county, Vermont, and died in Alexandria, Minnesota on September 24, 1912, aged 95 years and seven days. He moved to the state of New York when a boy, where he spent his early years. He was married to Miss Betsy Kenison of that state, and to them were born ten children of which six survive. In 1864 his wife died, shortly after which he emigrated to Wisconsin. In 1865 he was again married to Mrs. Emma J. Dyke of Manston, Wis. of which union six children were born, four of whom still survive. Mr. and Mrs. Lampman and family came to this state in the fall of 1866. Coming to Douglas county, they settled in the township of Hudson in 1867 where they continued to live until deprived of a sustenance by the hail, and grasshoppers, after which they moved into this city, where they since have made their home. Mr. Lampman came of sturdy stock, and was a man of large frame and great strength and enduring power. It was his native strength that enabled him to reach almost the century mark, notwithstanding the exposure and deprivations incident to the life of a pioneer. His general health continued good up to almost the last.
Of the ten surviving children, four live in Alexandria and were present at the funeral-viz: John S. and Harvey N., Mrs. G. R. Morse and Mrs. Ida M. Humphrey.
Funeral services were conducted in the Methodist Episcopal church last Thursday by the Rev. Geo. E. Tindall, after which the remains were interred in Union Lake cemetery.
